Almost 70% of Americans take a form of prescription drug regularly, and 450 people a day die due to the side effects caused by them. Do You Really Need That Pill: How to Avoid Side Effects, Interactions, and Other Dangers of Over-Medication discusses which popular drugs are being overprescribed, and offers tips on how to speak to your doctors about your medication regimen. Jennifer Jacobs, MD. practiced family medicine in Seattle for 25 years, was on the advisory board of the NIH Office of Alternative Medicine, and is a clinical assistant professor in epidemiology at the University of Washington. Later, Sarah Anne Shockley learned about chronic pain through personal experience. Rather than succumb to the incapacitating effects of it, she met the pain, worked with it, and overcame debilitation. You can benefit from her experiences by reading her new book, The Pain Companion: Everyday Wisdom for Living with and Moving Beyond Pain. Sarah is a columnist for the Pain News Network and contributes to online community for pain sufferers, The Mighty. She has lived with debilitating nerve pain for over a decade.
Pat Anson of The Pain News Network is our guest today. The Pain News Network is a media outlet that covers the political and personal side of pain. Unfortunately millions of people in America are being undertreated or denied treatment for pain. A big reason for that is the CDC guidelines that came out in 2016. We discuss the origins of those guidelines and also the most recent comments by the FDA and CDC regarding them. Pat and I discuss Medical Marijuana and also Kratom as solutions some people are turning to for pain relief. Pat had a great point during the conversation : that even if you are not in pain now one day you could be and that makes this an issue that is really important for us all. Check out Pain News Network here: https://www.painnewsnetwork.org Twitter: @PainNewsNetwork I exercise my health freedom by using Kratom to help with my chronic pain. After years of research the only brand I trust is Urban Ice Organics. You can find them at https://naturalorganix.com The owners of Urban Ice Organics are the producers of the Documentary “A leaf of Faith” directed by Chris Bell, they are the brand that Chris Bell gave to Joe Rogan during his appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience and they test all their Kratom to ensure there aren’t any heavy metals, salmonella and other adulterants in it. Having been chronically ill all my life I am very cautious about what I put in my body and before I found Urban Ice Organics I was hesitant to try Kratom, not because I thought Kratom was unsafe (according to my research) but because I couldn’t find a reputable source. I thank God I found Urban Ice Organics. You can use the promo code "ChronicallyHuman20" at check out to get 20% at checkout. I urge everyone to do their own research. If you’d like to learn more about my experience with Kratom email me: brad@chronicallyhuman.co If you’d like to know more about Urban Ice Organics and Kratom please check out The Chronically Human Podcast Ep. 25 when I spoke with the owner, Kelly Dunn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOn-rJeqq0I CDC Guidelines for 2016: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/65/rr/rr6501e1.htm CDC comment 4/10/19 (they finally admit there “may” have been unintended consequences) https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/3d70257f-a143-4a5b-b9df-f7d265df0d3d/downloads/Alford%20Final%20.pdf?ver=1554957603807 FDA letter 4/9/19 on Forced Tapers https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/3d70257f-a143-4a5b-b9df-f7d265df0d3d/downloads/ FDA%20Drug%20Safety%20Communication%20Opioid%20Tapering.pdf?ver=1554957604053 FDA forced Tapers: https://www.painnewsnetwork.org/stories/2019/4/9/fda-warns-about-fast-opioid-tapers Letter from 300 Health Professionals to the CDC
Women In-Depth: Conversations about the Inner Lives of Women
"Of course we want pain to end, absolutely, but paradoxically, the fastest way to get through this is to get through it, is to be in it, to be with it...What we want to do is imagine that pain has a positive purpose, that there’s a reason that pain has shown up. It’s trying to show us something and in a sense, really, it’s a signal and it’s a messenger whether it’s emotional or physical, but it’s part of us trying to ask for help, it’s part of us - in this sense, it’s the feeling of us trying to heal something. It’s that part of us that says 'I need help, I’m out of whack here, I’m out of balance, you need to pay attention to me.'" 11.2% of American adults experience some form of pain, often at severe levels every day and have for the previous three months. A 2006 survey from the American Pain Foundation found that the vast majority of pain sufferers feel they have no control over their pain, that it severely impacts their quality of life, while 77% of the participants surveyed reported feeling depressed. Chronic pain can cause both mental health struggles, trouble in interpersonal relationships and feelings of powerlessness or and loss of identity.

Aired Wednesday, 18 July 2018, 8:00 PM ETSarah Anne Shockley – The Pain CompanionGrowing up in the fifties and sixties, my mother was a great source of practical wisdom. Once I developed a toothache over a holiday weekend. The dentist was unavailable and I was having difficulty processing the pain. In her wisdom, my mother said, “Relax. The pain will fade in a few hours and you will be able to manage until the dentist returns.” She was right and I was fortunate. When it comes to physical pain, especially chronic pain, there are many who are less fortunate.According to the American Academy of Pain Medicine, 100 million Americans suffer chronic pain. Compare that with the 25.8 million who are dealing with diabetes and 16.3 million experiencing heart disease. The estimated cost of health care and lost wages to pain treatment is 800 billion dollars. Add to that the tragedy of those who become addicted to pain medications and the outlook is quite grim.What if there was another way to look at chronic pain and in doing so come to terms with it? My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Sarah Anne Shockley, did just that. In the Fall of 2007, she contracted Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS), which is a collapse of the area between the clavicles and first ribs, and has lived with debilitating nerve pain ever since. She has been a columnist for Pain News Network and is a regular contributor to The Mighty, a 1.5 million–member online community for those living with chronic illness and pain.

The Pain Companion for Chronic Pain: Recovery InsightsSarah Anne Shockley is the author of The Pain Companion. In the Fall of 2007, she contracted Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS), which is a collapse of the area between the clavicles and first ribs and has lived with debilitating nerve pain ever since. Why She Wrote The Pain Companion"As you probably already know, being injured or ill to the point of debilitation is an incredibly intense experience. Besides feeling a certain level of shock from the trauma of having your whole world turned upside down, there are a multitude of other emotional and psychological reactions that arise. These include loneliness, confusion, loss, frustration, depression, and hopelessness. Also, a person undergoes an incredible amount of stress when unable to function adequately in their world. There are financial worries about how to pay for the necessities of life if you can no longer work. There are worries about how to physically cope with the everyday tasks most of us used to take for granted, such as being able to care for children and family, cook, clean, shop, drive, take out the garbage, and even handle personal hygiene. Any or all of these activities may have become physically impossible or extraordinarily laborious and painful. Also, being in constant pain is utterly exhausting, and there are minimal mental, emotional, or physical resources left over to participate in life anything like a reasonable person. Social interactions may become few and far between. With all this going on, it can become a huge struggle to get up in the morning and carry on."

What I discovered was that most of the books on pain address physical approaches to pain management, and most are written by practitioners. While they are undoubtedly valuable for many, my condition does not do well with physical exercises, so they weren't useful to me, and I was seeking a certain level of solace and understanding. I wanted to hear from someone like me. I wanted to hear from someone who understood the daily challenges of actually living in pain, with pain, and having all of your experiences stem from or are colored by pain." Healing Answers"Since there was little available to me regarding treatments, either because I couldn't afford them or because they didn't exist, I was pretty much left to my own devices. I found that continually trying to battle with pain - get rid of it, avoid it, not feel it, or push it away - was more exhausting and frustrating than it was productive. What I needed was a healing modality which included pain as part of my healing journey as an integral part of the process rather than putting so much energy into eradicating it. Over time, I created my meditative exercises to understand the role of continued pain in my body and eventually began working with pain as an ally in healing. I found ways to live with pain and not sink into a mire of depression or self-pity. With these approaches, the acute level of pain I was in began to shift. Eventually, I decided that writing about it would not only clarify this approach for my use; it would be helpful for others who live with chronic pain. Out of these experiences came The Pain Companion."
